Letsencrypt and support for Google Chrome “Requiring Certificate Transparency in 2017”
Posted by jpluimers on 2016/10/29
This week there was the very important Google Chrome Announcement: Requiring Certificate Transparency in 2017 – Google Groups [Archive.is].
I’m glad that letsencrypt already submits all certificates to Certificate Transparency logs [WayBack] for X1 and X3 but there is more to it as you can read in How Certificate Transparency Works – Certificate Transparency [WayBack].
So there’s a [Google Chrome] Announcement: Requiring Certificate Transparency in 2017 – Feature Requests – Let’s Encrypt Community Support [WayBack and Archive.is].
Hopefully one or both of these issues see some progress soon:
- Include SCT receipts in OCSP responses · Issue #592 · letsencrypt/boulder
- Embed SCT receipts in certificates · Issue #2244 · letsencrypt/boulder
